Some years ago a musician friend told me he'd recently recorded a date for ECM and related this story. During the date Eicher told him something like "on the next take have the sax player use flute". He told Manfred it was his music and his band and he would decide what instrument was needed. My friend told me it didn't matter since Manfred made it sound like a flute in the mix. I related the story to Michael Cuscuna and he repeated it to a writer who published it in a magazine. The musician in question received enough pressure he wrote a letter to the mag denying the entire story.
here I am again, left out in the cold. I was hoping some team from the Negro Leagues would be playing the Black Sox. History and sociology collide in PROFESSIONAL sports. For you little kiddies, that is not sport at all.
Right now in the "battleground states" (like Michigan) dialectics is an unsolicited phone call from GWB asking for support. "I got your support right here big boy" - then I evacuate.
Just checked out AAJ, where I tried to pee on some idiots shoes in their political forum. Anyway, when I left 8 people were on the site. I came back here to find 28. Way to go.
